NanoNuno® Umbrella – It’s Always Dry

by Al

Nano Umbrella

The NanoNuno® uses nano technology to ensure that the umbrella is always dry, so once you get home you can hang it up without getting all your non-nano clothes wet .

Even after heavy rain, just give this umbrella a good shake and it will be clean and dry right away. Even in light-coloured fabric, it will keep looking immaculate for years. The secret: Innovative nanotechnology.
Modelled on a natural phenomenon – the lotus leaf.

In nature, a fascinating effect is produced by the microscopic, rough nanostructure on the leaves of the lotus plant: Dirt and moisture simply roll off. This is because there is a much smaller surface area to which things can stick than on a smooth surface.

The design of your NanoNuno® umbrella is based on this natural principle, with the result that moisture does not penetrate the fabric and so there is no tedious drying. This process was developed in Switzerland during many years of research.

Available online from Pro-Idee for £49.95.

If that nano technology keeps the umberella from getting wet, why don’t they just make an outfit out of it that won’t get wet instead of making an umberella. Just think about it.

[...] El nuevo NanoNuno® usa precisamente eso, nanotecnología para asegurarse que el paraguas está siempre seco, con lo que te permite llegar a casa después de un gran chaparrón y dejar el paraguas donde quieras sin miedo a que moje nada. También además del paraguas se puede aplicar esta tecnología a toda tu ropa de forma que llegues totalmente seco a tu destino. A esto le llamo yo un buen invento. [...]
